To all the Daly’s
George was always a inspiration for me and my entire family. My father is here in NY with me and has been telling some great stories of George and how he was one of the best this Union had to serve as a Agent and business agent at large. I remember him riding with me in a couple of Labor Day parades I will never forget that for the rest of my life as he truly blessed all of us with his presence
From all of the Tully family we give our condolences and his life should be celebrated. God Bless
Our deepest condolences to the Daly family. Love, Chris and John
